Hi. I can't run Play versions 0.3 or r1077 on my Powerbook G3. Play 0.2 runs fine. When I try to run a recent version from the Finder, it starts to open, appears briefly in the Dock and then closes again (no windows or anything). When I run it from the Terminal (straight or in gdb), I get a message which suggests that there's a problem with the packaged libcurl Framework (maybe no PPC code?). The message is the same for both 0.3 and r1077.

Since Play 0.3 has been out for a while and nobody else has reported this, I wonder whether there's something wrong with my Mac ... but its setup is pretty normal (OS version 10.4.11), and it's not giving me any other problems.

P.S. I've just remembered that Play 0.3 USED to run on this very same G3. It stopped working after an operating system upgrade from Software Update. Don't remember exactly which one, but probably around 10.4.9 or 10.4.10.

I will fix this for the next release, and in the next unstable. I guess there aren't too many G3 users left.

I'm missing my version 3, and it's been a long time between unstables. Any chance you could please make a G3-compatible libcurl framework and put it into the .tar.bz2 file of precompiled frameworks at http://files.sbooth.org? Then I could copy it into my copy of Play version 3.
